    Hello,

    I have had Woodhead in blue for a long but have never tried to enter Wath yard at all until the weekend.

    I know the route is demanding, although the "mainline" from Manchester to Sheffield runs well enough on my computer and I have made scenarios with no problem.

    However I decided to make a scenario from Wath yard and no matter which way I try and access it in the editor it crashes. Whether flying to it from Wombwell or loading the editor up at the location. I notice none of the DTG scenarios seem to use it, their Wath to Fiddlers Ferry scenario starts at Wombwell so maybe they know there is a problem with it too.

    I can try turning down the settings and loading it up via the editor but if that means playing the scenario, if I manage to make it, on reduced settings I don't think I will bother.

    I couldn't find any specific on here about it, has anyone managed to load Wath yard up in the editor successfully?

    Thanks,
    Peter

    Yes, use 32-bit mode for editing this.

    Ah okay thank you very much I will try that.

    I just assumed it would run better in 64 bit.

    Thanks again.

    You can play your scenario in 64 bit, but for scenario editing on some routes the 32 bit exe is safer. (e.g. VNHRR Springfield line manual recommends editing in 32 bit explicitely.)
